Q&A
My AC is running but not cooling my Magna home. What's usually the cause?
This is a very common issue during our hot Utah summers. Often, the problem is a refrigerant leak, a dirty or frozen evaporator coil, or a failing compressor. Restricted airflow from a clogged filter can also cause it. Our first step is a comprehensive diagnostic to pinpoint the exact cause, as simply adding refrigerant without fixing the leak won't provide a lasting solution for your home.
What does 'improper HVAC sizing' mean, and why is it a problem in Magna?
Improper sizing means your furnace or air conditioner is either too large or too small for your home's square footage, insulation, and layout. An oversized AC will short-cycle, turning on and off rapidly, failing to dehumidify properly and wearing out quickly. An undersized system will run constantly, struggling to reach the set temperature. We perform a Manual J load calculation to ensure any new system we install is perfectly matched to your Magna home for maximum efficiency and comfort.
How can I tell if my current HVAC system is the right size for my house?
Signs of an improperly sized system include uneven temperatures between rooms, excessive humidity indoors, skyrocketing energy bills, and the system running almost constantly or cycling on and off every few minutes. If you're experiencing these issues, contact us for a professional evaluation. We'll assess your ductwork, insulation, and current equipment to determine if incorrect sizing is the root of your comfort problems.
